]]>Visitors to Grenada often enjoy sight-seeing on the other islands belonging to the tri-island state, including the beautiful island of Carriacou. A short 90 minute boat ride away, those wishing to explore the island can take a day trip over on the Osprey Ferry, or Laluna’s Concierge Desk can help arrange a private charter or flight.

Beginning Friday night, the Festival kicks off with an open-air concert at Carriacou’s new mini stadium. The opening-night concert includes carol singing, cultural presentations and parang string bands.

Saturday night brings live performances by international entertainers. Sunday is the big event: Organized parang groups from throughout Carriacou, Grenada and Petite Martinique compete for the challenge trophy and cash prizes, performing both a Christmas carol and their selected piece.
